we should make a poll here...do you actually care what size the customer's dick is, as long as he pays your exclusive per minute price? The possible answers would be:
* don't give a shit
* your $ are as green, no matter the length
* I really don't wanna see your junk, but keep paying
* damn, I would never let you actually touch me with that, but keep paying
* ah, you have a dick. well, keep on paying.
* hmm...what else?

Someone took me private but I couldn't tell if it was a man or woman. Very butch, strong swagger. So I asked 'how big is your dick?'. ***PVT ends IMMEDIDATELY***. OOOOOOOoooops!

This is helpful, I've never known what to say to the dudes who are like "What do you think? Do you like it?". Do they assume we analyze every dick we see? "The girth is good but I don't think it's proportional. Also your tip shade should be more purple." What do they want from me?
It varies from guy to guy. Some of them are looking for SPH, some are looking for a genuine reaction, some just want a little dirty talk while you watch them jerk off. I usually start off vague and judge their reactions from there. For the record I HATE playing "guess my fetish" more than anything else in the freaking world. JUST TELL ME WHAT YOU WANT OMG.

Men think penises are beautiful. That's why there are so many phallic symbols all over the world. The best one is in Toronto--the C.N. Tower and the sports dome at the bottom...cock and ball.

Lol, I hate when that happens. I've had that happen like 2x.
Me: "Is your dick hard for me?"
customer: "I don't have a dick."

YES. I had a guy who was into SPH but didn't TELL me that, and so the whole time I'm feeling it out ,in the back of my head going "Is he going to rate me 1 star because I'm laughing at his cock?" hahaha

Ive been having a real hard generating traffic into my room. last week i just got a new processor and motherboard for it (i got a i74790k with the new haswell cores in them) . next month im starting my third year into camming and normally i only have like 2-3 ppl in my room and most of the time im sitting in an empty room on cam. up until now ive been using a computer that wasnt really up to snuff so im wondering if ive kind of branded my name on SM as "the BBW with the shitty feed" or something. it was suggested that i start over with Katys studio so i can start fresh with a new name and get the new model status again but i wanted to ask here what other ppl thought and for some advice.
ETA - if helps to know my usual placement is somewhere around the middle of page two n the main listing and row 2 in BBW

I don't think it would hurt to start over if you're only having 3 in the room at a time. Unless you have a good bit of regulars that you're afraid won't find you.
But I'd also suggest not to start over until you're completely ready. Get your "new" brand together. Make sure your cam space, equipment, and set up is exactly how you want it. Maybe change it up a bit so it will really be like a "new" you! Update any other sites you have to, like social media, or look into new non-cam sites for content, blogs, and things. Maybe get some new content ready for release when you start over too.
Basically make sure all ducks are in a row so you can take advantage of this new beginning!

Run some gold shows if you don't already or lower your pvt rate for a bit. Dicks will come out of the woodwork. Then they will see your feed is good. Studio= less earnings. I wouldn't go there. Then you're locked in for a year after you quit or something. I forget, maybe it's 6 months.
So I know we don't usually tell each other to lower your rates, but in a studio you'd be losing $ anyway. Plus you can stop and put them back up whenever you want. If you lower and still nobody then it's most likely just traffic. There are just weeks sometimes when I get on and can fell the connection to the site isn't good. The thing that pisses me off is I know when it feels right and there is NO tech support for models.

If you want a fresh start why not closing the actual account & opening a new one on ur own snowy, why u need daily pay? To cash money faster? But then u loose some of ur money... i dont see the point?!
I would start with a fresh account myself but due to a very important reasons i wont, it's about payment schedule actually, i cant afford a time gap without payment. My account is 5 years old already, i think after a while something happens with our accounts, cant tell what is it but if u dont generate 'decent' money for site they dig you.
I know i had a period of time when work sucked for me after they introduced gold shows, i was living abroad, had a slow laptop i worked with, slow connection, i could not get GS to work for me at all due to stream quality & this was pretty disheartening, took a while to start making good money again, after i came back home & upgraded pc & connection here but during that bad period my traffic slowed down a lot & never came back to how it was before.
You will get the new model status if u open up a new account right? If so that can only help, sure, why not?
If u need any help regarding style, make up, hair, so on pls let me know, i can help, i'll PM you if u not comfy talking about it here. Good luck!

Yes, definitely start over and yes to Katy! I am with her and she is a godsend. After awhile she doesn't take anything because apparently something else covers her processing fees. I think the majority of us who cam on SM are with her if I am not mistaken. Go for it!

Hi girls,
I'm a new girl on SM, have been streaming for 4 months now and I have a question connected with ranking, specifically bitrate. Why does my bitrate read differently on the hd encoder and the My ranking page on my performer dashboard? I have recently upgraded my computer, while using my old computer I averaged about 400 kbps on the encoder, now I average 800 kbps, but on my ranking page it still reads around 430. Why is this? It has been rising gradually since i have been streaming from my new computer, about a month. Is it maybe because they average out the last 90 days of streaming, just like the star ratings? On the ratings page it says that they update every 24 hours, but its been a month and my bitrate isn't the same as in my encoder. I'm confused. I have contacted sm support but they sent me a bullshit email saying to send stillpics of the hd, test my upload etc, I did so and my upload was also about 850, but they still didn't tell my why there is a difference in the average.

I think this is a common annoyance for most of us. I stream at 850-1000 bitrate on the encoder but it still always shows at 607 for me. Support is never helpful about this so I've just learned to accept it.

yup, its sad, i always stream at 1200 and always get 670-700 on my stats. my rtt sucks as well. my fps are the best cuz i always have around 60.
i finally asked to keep my bio pic as my main pic. and my traffic TRIPPLED. i wouldnt say i get more privates, but i finally dont have to hang in room forever alone.
aslo in some cases it seems that guys dont seem my stream. like i would be private. its like. mostly people come in-come out and one randomj person takes me private and insta leaves cuz he expects to see insta nudity, but he sees what people see in free chat. this is so annoying.

Bitrate is about ping times. If your ping time is high your bitrate will be low. The lower your ping time is with SM servers, the better your bitrate. I believe SM is in Washington if I'm not mistaken. You can use pingtest.net and choose the Liberty Lake, Washington server and you can get an approximation of your true ping time with SM.

^^I agree. I'd try this before you scrap your account entirely. Normally I hate Gold Shows, but they can be great for showing off something new that you want all the guys to see. If you have new toys, a new look, a new skill, or new tech, and you think it will bring more customers, you can use that GS label to draw a bunch of guys into your room so you can talk it up and show it off. In your case, it's extra handy, because even guys that don't join the show can see your lovely stream during the countdown. The GS itself doesn't have to be particularly profitable - even if your earnings are shitty, just remember that in most industries, people have to pay to advertise their new and improved product line, but you can make a bit of money doing it.
As far as lowering your rates just to get guys in the room, I don't know - it might help, but it's not as quick as the GS label.

If I were you I'd only join her studio if it's because you prefer having your money daily. Yeah, you lose money but 1. You get paid daily 2. You can raise your prices to the point of not even noticing. 2 weeks as a new model is only good for 2 weeks. Then you have to haul ass and hustle.
Not to sound mean (and I mean this sincerely) but I think your traffic will go back to how it is now because I feel like you might not have what it takes to make it in the industry. I keep hearing a broken record and it seems with all the advice you've been given over 3 years you don't seem to make it work to your advantage. When that keeps happening it may be time to find another job. We are the product in this industry. If a business has a product that doesn't sell, they discontinue it and try a different approach.

I never lower my rates anymore. When I have previously, I'd make the same amount as I did with them higher, but at a snail's pace. Instead of making $50 in an hour at high price, it took me two hours to get to $50 at my low price and I was worn out and sweaty! That or regs will notice you lowering your rates so they'll only take you pvt at your low rates while you do the exact same thing as you did when you charged him more. Cheaper rates don't always equal more money.

02-08-2015, 12:34 AM
It has been very slow for me, probably cuz of almost nonexistent traffic and I suck at keeping the schedule.. Lots of shit going on in my life. :(
But, I still refuse lower my rate any less than 4.99 per minute. I have never lowered my exclusive rate at 9.99 and thank god for that...... just now I finally had a 15 minute block in exclusive that I did not get in a long time. Usually only few minutes in exclusive. So, yeah, keep your rates at where they are if you did not lower any.

What a nightmare, i had a guy on yesterday who had connection problems, he kept jumping in and out of my exclusive, then he gave me a 1 star rating, my connection was great i guess his was the problem. If I contact support, will they delete it for me?
kortneykay
02-08-2015, 03:13 AM
They should be able to. Give them his name and they'll most likely remove it. Izabella bret, I'm not sure if you're new to SM but if you don't know guys will sometimes try to play that trick on you if you're a new girl. SM gives customers half a minute to watch your FREE in both EXL or PRV as long as they leave before that half minute. More than likely this guy popped in and out so he didn't have to pay for you to get undressed. Then he may have rated you a 1 because you weren't getting naked fast enough or you caught onto his scheme.
The first time this happened to me I was a new girl and the guy said he had a bad connection. He'd take me pvt then stay long enough not to be charged, leave, then pop in again. Thankfully I take my time before getting undressed so he didn't see anything and each time he came back I was fully dressed. I caught onto what he was doing and blocked him on the 4th time he came into pvt. Fucker.

I lowered my rates (exclusive),right after the traffic became wonky, and the disconnections started happening to me this past week.
I'm always glad when I do, because I make more money.
I'm prob. the opposite of the above comments, because sitting in free chat makes me want to quit camming.
I love being in a show, and can perform for hours at a time if I have to. It must be because I come from the stripping world, and its the actual body movement (and the fact that I'm getting paid for it), that keeps my energy up.

there have been connection issues all week with models and viewers so he may have well been having connection issues . i suspect that thats what the slowness this week is about - guys having an issue staying stable in the site and are just logging off and giving up , what i do about peepers is if they leave twice and come back in on the third i block

I've been having similar problems and I think it really might be the issue. I started off with a shitty computer and only got something more or less decent after 3 years of camming. Probably the site somehow analyzes your computer specs when you start off and lists you accordingly (just a piece of conspiration theory from someone in denial of their own inefficiency).

My exclusive is 9.99 and I get hour long exclusives.. it's all about having the right clientele in your room. Why shouldn't you be expensive?? They're not going through the fast food line and ordering you off the dollar menu, if they can't afford you then you're out of their league. Period.

The Walmart business model works great on any camsite...charge cheaper rates, only gold shows, appeal to the masses but are you really into the customer that buys this kind of product? Are you willing to be that kind of product? I am not insulting models who do this because we all know the Walmart business works but what if instead you stop ruthlessly concentrating on only the bottom dollar?
Be more exclusive, charge more, be selective about who you are interacting with, you deserve respectful customers. Filter out the garbage. Use the Neiman Marcus business model. Anyone who shops there wouldn't dare tell the salesperson they are brokeass. They wouldn't even walk in. Yes, it will be quieter but you will earn more in the end because you will be happier, have more energy, you will be your best self.
The big picture here is that we girls control this industry. We have the goods. What drives profit? Supply and demand. Lessen the supply and the demand goes up.

I can say with certainty that this is not the case. I have a great gaming computer and have decent placement, but I have also had to cam on a shitty less desirable computer and as long as you are making money then you will continue to get bumped up . I check my "ranking" everytime I am online and the specs showed represent whatever system I am using at the time.
Have you ever recorded your shows and critiqued it making notes on things you could do differently? Don't be in denial of your own inefficency, make a game plan to change your efficiancy instead. Dr Phil says that the difference between winners and losers are winners are willing to do the things losers won't.
my placement didnt go up witch is weird - its been said that performers who have better computers get put higher up my placement didnt change at all ive been at the middle of page two for like a year last year i didnt cam from april to august because i was just going phone sex but ive been at pretty consistently since then
Shitty computer or great computer if you are not making money your placement will not change. When I make consistently good money I am quickly moved up to middle of page 1, and usually in the top 3 spots on the bbw category. When I take time off from camming, I have a lower placement but it moves quickly back up to the top the more money I make.
Basically I think placement is based on in this order, How much money you make, your specs and then time online, because if you are on for 10 hours but hardly make a dime then it won't effect your placement much, or you could go on for 2 hours bank and be up to the top quickly even with a mediocre feed. This is from my experience only of course, but there are girls who have the shittiest feeds I have ever seen and are on page 1, and it's because they are making the site lots of money.
The days I am in the highest placement are the days I make the most money in the least amount of time. So if I am doing lots in free chat and getting gold then that is $$ for less time in a show or when I get tips after a show that helps a lot too. Having higher rates too works because you are making more $$ for less time in shows. But if the problem is you aren't making any decent amount of money then you will just never move up, unless of course all the other girls are making no money either.
It is all about selling your product, is your hair nicely done, Is your makeup applied nicely, are you wearing something that is flattering and appealing on cam, are you happy, engaging, sexy and flirty? sexy girls are confident girls beauty comes in all forms and there is a type of person for everyone but if you do not believe you are sexy and are not confident then the best computer/specs in the world won't do anything because the next girl they click on will no doubt be all those things I mentioned, if you are in an industry where you are selling yourself but don't take care of yourself then your basically saying "I know my product sucks, don't buy it" in a big neon sign over your head.
I basically make "being hot" my job so perfecting my look, continuing learning about new makeup techniques and products, studying other girls , erotic literature and of course porn to be able to role play and dirty talk effectivley because thats all it really is. Guys want something that is visually appealing and auditorily appealing. Looking sexy and saying sexy things are really the only thing we have to do as models.
Some girls drip sex appeal and some girls just don't . You can learn to be sexy by studying other girls, but if you aren't confident nothing will help. If you have low self esteem then this job isn't right for you because if your self esteem is already low, and you go on and get zero shows it is only going to make you feel lower, only making you feel more worthless and unattractive. Insanity is trying to do the same thing over and over and expecting different results.
If you like to cam I would do it as a side job, but getting a job where you are valued, making enough money to survive and interacting with people who appreciate you can and will help your self esteem. Being locked away from society everyday, making pennies for taking off your clothes and constantly being dispointed everyday is no way to live.

I have a guy, that has always come into my room, but its like he cant ever stay. even in free chat, he comes in, then he goes, and its constant. he has NEVER been able to stay in my room for more then 2 sec. If I am in a private and he joins again, its only for 2 sec. so its not like hes trying to get a quick look. I cant send the guy a message as he never sent me one. I have tried to type a message in free chat to him, but that hasnt worked either. He has done one show back in may of 2014 for just under 2 min.. that has been the last time we did.
If I were to get support his user name can they check to see if somethings wrong. It drives me nuts! and i dont want to lose a potential customer

He's checking your prices. Maybe the last time he cammed with you your rates were lower? He seems like a cheap ass. Don't stress over bargain hunters.

I would think the same, but its multiple times in a row, like he is trying to stay in but gets kicked out. If he was just checking prices, he wouldn't come in 10xs in a row

I have the same guys do this every single day over and over, and over again, come in and pop out over and over, its like WTF. I personally think from the way I watch cam girls ( I love them ok, you bitches are sexy as fuck) anyways I am a multiple tab girl, so I will go and open like 6 tabs and then, close them one by one deciding on who I am feeling the most attracted to or captivated by, but for the average cam customer who does this I am pretty sure they are multiple tabbing it to see whos got the most nudity to offer.
Bet if you were naked in free chat he would be able to get his comp to work just fine...
You are probably on his favorites and he likes you but doesn't wanna pay for shit so he just cycles through his faves hoping to catch a free flash paid for by someone else
